Being in the Flow

Abraham started the discussion by explaining that our thinking affects our vibration, and that our vibration is our point of attraction.

"You are the Creator / Attractor of your experience. The balance of thought within you equals your vibration which equals your point of attraction."

"Lack is the disconnect between you and your Inner You. A negative emotion is an indicator that your thought is in a place of lack and you are mis-creating."

"The path of least resistance is the path of most allowing."

"When you feel bad or are having a bad experience, the only thing that matters is that you change your vibration. You might be mad at something. Work your thoughts to how you can feel good. This changes your vibration. By changing your vibration, you are changing your future."

"The way you are vibrating is how you attract future events."

"First, learn what you do not want. Then change your vibration, or you will create what you don't want."

(On this tape, Abraham used the terms Inner You and Inner Being interchangeably.)

Abraham explained an imaginary pipe between you and your Inner Being. When the energy is flowing through the pipe you feel an impulse and follow it and are in the flow. Synchronicity happens. When you are not feeling the full connection through the pipe, life is harder because you are not able to feel the impulses and be in the flow.

Abraham told us to: "Decide that your vibration is of the utmost importance, and everything else is far down the list. Find first the harmony between you and You, and then you will be guided literally to the interactions which will lead you to harmony."

She used the metaphor of a nail near a magnet. The magnet is your Inner Being and the nail is you. You can push the nail closer to the magnet and yet nothing happens. You keep nudging it closer, and all of a sudden the nail is close enough and is pulled to the magnet.

"With each positive thought, you raise your vibration and get closer to your Inner Being. When you are connected with your Inner Being, you see the farthest and make the best decisions."

Abraham said many of our problems come from the energy in which we make decisions. "Most decisions are made to soothe the inner emptiness. This is not a good idea."

"When you connect with your Inner You, then you are the You that you've wanted to be."

"If you are not in a place of feeling good, you cannot get the guidance from your Inner Being."

"Be in that place of feeling connection and strength and then make decisions."

Freedom

A father told Abraham that he wants to disown his son because of his lack of respect among other things.

Abraham said “If this were not important to you, you would have no emotional response to it. If someone you don’t know calls you and says they will never talk to you again, you don’t care.”

“Your emotional response is the harmony or lack of it with your Inner Being. While you are having this statement (wanting to disown the son), your Inner Being is not vibrating anywhere near you.”

“Anything you do from a place of negative emotion is counterproductive.”

“Your connection with your Inner Being is the most important thing -- more important than your relationship with others.”

Abraham then talked about the generation gap and how different generations have a difference in their general approach to life.

“It doesn’t matter what generation you were born in. Most of you were guided away from your Inner Being. You find fault with anyone who does not conform to your beliefs. Your overall viewpoint is ‘My way is better than yours.’’”

Referring to the man and his son, she said “Both generations are disconnected from your source of knowing as you have these confronted feelings. You vibrate apart from who you really are.”

“This relationship is not as important as your relationship with your Inner Being.”

This was her suggestion: “Bless this rotten son with a bad attitude for the part that is he playing in your extraordinary wanting. You are willing to let go of this troubleshot so you can feel good.”

She said the father’s intention should be: “I am wanting to have negativity released from my physical experience so I can vibrate in harmony with who I am. Nothing is more important than that I feel good.”

“When you discover your ability to feel good in spite of what someone outside of you is doing or feeling, then you have found total freedom.”

“The belief that someone else must not exist in order for you to feel good violates your greatest knowing -- which is that you create your own experience.”

“It is much easier to find positive thoughts if you don’t have something negative in your space. The idea that you do not have control over how you feel, that you are disconnected from your true being -- then you are in the mode of justifying.”

Abraham suggested we remember that “’Nothing is more important than that I feel good. The way I view life is through my perceptions. I am affected by it, as is everyone who is affected by my vibration. Therefore it is important I feel better, because I am an uplifter. In a connected state I am wiser and surer.’”

“When you are in a pure place of vibration, you can choose not to be with negative people. When you are in a place of pure vibration, the negativity does not haunt you and cause negative attraction -- then it is beneficial to everyone that is a part of your vibration.”

“When you give your attention to anything, you atrract it. As you give attention you send your vibration to an energy web -- reaching out and attracting an object of attention. When you say yes to something, you attract it. When you say no to something, you attract it.”

“Think what you do want. Be around positive people, interact with people who are deliberate in what they speak and think. Then negative people will not be as much a part of your experience.”

“Have you had an experience where you acted unlike yourself? Others’ negative expectation of you was so powerful they extracted behavior from you that is not really you.”

“We want to point out the part of this relationship with negative others that is yours. You can feel it, not like it, acknowledge it, then focus on what you prefer. Then the parts of him that bring you most negativity will be less a part of your experience.”

“Don’t make a decision about what you don’t want - ‘I don’t want to see him anymore’ -- instead focus on what you do want ‘I want to associate with positive people’.”

“Take your own responsibility for what you feel and discover your freedom -- because as long as someone else can change what you feel, you are not free.”

Inner Guidance, part 2

"Your Inner Being exists in a place of positive emotion."

"When you say 'the only thing that matters is that I feel good,' you are really saying 'I want to harmonize with who I really am.'"

Abraham suggested we start a Book of Positive Aspects -- "write things that make you feel good."

She reminded us that we have to feel good in order to attract what we want. "So many ask their prayers from a place of lack and deepest sorrow and despair -- and from that place they want to attract someone to assist them. You have to feel happy in order to attract what makes you happy."

"If you get up every morning saying 'I want to feel good,' you will attract things that help you feel good."

"Identify what you are wanting and allow that thought essence to come forth."

"All the things you want and hope to know, your Inner Being is aware of. It is prepared to give you moment-by-moment guidance on choices that will suit you best right here in the now."

"Spend some time identifying what you want to know, and then ask it, and listen and expect some sort of communication."

"You attract unto you the balance of your thought. If you are negative, you will attract something consistent with your negativity."

"When you want to do something you know others disagree with, you tend to justify yourself. When you get in the mode of justifying, you are in the mode of negative attraction."

"Your Inner Being is wanting you to be at the point of listening to the guidance that comes from within. We are wanting you to trust your own impulse."

"You are the creator of your experience. You are the attractor of your information."

"This inner part of you exists in a place of powerful and passionate emotion. You have access to the energy of the universe. You contour it by thinking."

"Energy is the bridge between what you've identified that you want and you. This is how inspiration comes. Identify what you want to know and it will come. Unless you doubt or say 'I'm not good enough', etc. -- then you send the energy in the opposite direction."

"Be more specific of what you want, and more expectant that it will come."

"Sometimes you are not in the place where you can hear the answer. When you are in a receptive place it will come, through a dream, through friends, through the crack of least resistance."

"Identify what you are wanting, and keep your eyes and ears open."

"'I can have anything.' That is how you enhance your trust."

"When you have a positive emotion, you are allowing what you want. When you have a negative emotion, you are allowing what you don't want."

"We focus on what we want. We ignore what we don't want. And we live happily ever after."

"Everything you see upon the earth is being maintained by the attention of the non-physical."

"Acknowledge the value of your physicalness."

"You can see the non-physical when you're focused on the non-physical. Your Inner Being can see the non-physical and translate it as you need to the physical."

"Your intent of growth, freedom and joy are intertwined."

"Focus on growth, receive joy , which leads to freedom and more growth. Keep moving forward. Be attuned to your inner guidance. Pay attention to how you feel."
